“This is slander! Blatant slander!” Zhao Xue shook with anger, meowing menacingly as she read the string of messages sent to her.

“Despicable. At this rate, I might just become a headline in the local newspapers!”

Zhao Xue quickly asked her friends how such rumors about her had spread.

On his side, Zhao Yao was chatting with a female university student. He said worriedly, “What should I do with Zhao Xue now that she’s pregnant and alone with no money and no one to take care of her? You really don’t know where she is?”

“Zhao Xue is pregnant? I didn’t know that,” the female student gasped.

Zhao Yao sighed again, “Looks like Zhao Xue really loves that man. She didn’t even tell any of you. That foolish girl, it’s not as if I would separate them from each other if she had been honest with me, right?”

Right at that moment, Zhao Yao’s phone rang. His eyes brightened as the caller was actually Zhao Xue. He answered the call immediately and heard an ear-splitting scream hollering at him, “Zhao Yao! Do you want to die?! Why did you spread such nonsensical rumors about me being pregnant!”

At that moment, Zhao Xue was completely naked as she ran into the forest on Cat Island. She turned into the form of a girl temporarily to make the call.

As her cat body grew, the amount of time she could turn into a human body extended such that she could take on her human form for 30 minutes every day.

Zhao Xue deliberately assumed human form to lash out at Zhao Yao, “You better go and explain to my friends and tell them that whatever you said to them just now is nonsense!”

Zhao Yao replied, “Zhao Xue, where exactly are you? You’re really not pregnant? Then why are you avoiding me?”

“I!” Zhao Xue screamed, “I am traveling. It’s none of your business.”

Zhao Yao immediately replied, “Then come back right now. Your brother, aka me, offended his archenemy. Leaving you alone outside is too dangerous.”

“I have my own things to settle here,” Zhao Xue said, “I won’t be able to come back for now.”

Zhao Yao’s eyelids fluttered ever so slightly as he scoffed, “Zhao Xue if you don’t come back, I will just continue asking around your school for your whereabouts, especially since you’re pregnant.”

“Zhao Yao!” Zhao Xue flared up immediately, “Don’t you dare!”

Zhao Yao gripped his chin as he said, “Asking everyone one by one is too inefficient... Should I just ask on your school forum then!?”

“Ahhhh!” Zhao Xue screamed before her tone suddenly changed as she said sweetly, “Zhao Yao, don’t bully your sister anymore alright? I will treat you to a meal once I’m back.”

“No, if I don’t see you within a day, I will make my move,” Zhao Yao threatened. “Hmm, speaking of which, I still have your bed photos from high school. What do you think will happen if I send them out?”

Zhao Xue immediately remembered the time when she was in high school and two of them were still living together. Although the photo was not a very scandalous one, it was enough to let people’s imagination run wild.

When she heard Zhao Yao’s words, Zhao Xue immediately cried out, “Zhao Yao don’t you dare! If you do that, I will post photos of you wearing Mum’s clothes when you were young.”

Zhao Yao forced out a laugh as he said, “Big deal, most people have worn one or two items of their mother’s clothing when they were young.”

“Anyway Zhao Xue, just remember, if I don’t see you in 24 hours, be prepared to regret your choice.”

Looking at the hung up call, Zhao Xue was filled with rage. She wanted to scratch Zhao Yao to death.

“Despicable, this guy is so despicable!” Zhao Xue was troubled. “What should I do? Should I meet Zhao Yao in my human form? But I only have half an hour’s time, if I’m exposed wouldn’t that be really embarrassing? No matter what, it won’t be worse than the current situation. I just need to pacify Zhao Yao within half an hour and all will be well.”

At the thought of that, Zhao Xue immediately sent a message to Zhao Yao to meet tomorrow at his cat café.

Zhao Yao glanced at the message and nodded his head when he saw that his sister had given in. “That’s more like it. If not for King of Death’s threats, I wouldn’t force you like this. Blame it on King of Death.”

Thinking of King of Death, Zhao Yao quickly found a secluded spot to return to the Extradimensional Belly. He was going to find Elizabeth to feed her a spicy cat strip to see if she could deal with King of Death after her transformation.

...

While Zhao Yao was thinking about how to deal with King of Death, in the southern Huadu district, King of Death had also mobilized all of Ivory to form a huge army that trained apostles in preparation for the battle against Zhao Yao.

“Adam has been activated and is currently in the process of awakening.”

“Send out 200 apostles to keep watch. If the situation looks off, kill Adam on the spot.”

“The Virtual Spirit-Body ability has been officially incorporated in 120 apostles.”

“Monitor their every move. If something goes wrong, activate the killing procedure.”

“Doll has been escorted to the factory.”

“All kinds of internet access must be banned in the factory. All hardware must have an indicator lower than 3.”

“Our American counterpart has agreed to add a meteorite to the transaction, but they requested...”

“Agree to all their requests as long as they give us the meteorite.”

Ivory had been growing its influence peacefully with the unique nature of King of Death’s powers. After all, in the eyes of King of Death, as long as he grew his power he would eventually conquer the world.

However, the Headless Horseman represented a real threat to his life. Hence, King of Death abandoned his past considerations and activated every dangerous power he had. He armed masses of apostles to form an unparalleled elite superpower army in the South.

They had only one objective:

Completely destroy Zhao Yao and all his supercats.

...

Zhao Yao walked to a remote alley and with a turn of his body, disappeared from the physical world and returned to the Extradimensional Belly.

Not long after Zhao Yao disappeared, two pairs of cat ears emerged from the high wall behind the alley.

“Can you still hear his voice?”

“No, I can’t. Where did he go?”

After a while, a pair of big yellow eyes peered out from the wall. Glancing at the empty alley, the orange Dragon Li screamed, “Bad news, Yellow Bro! That man has disappeared.”

“Huh? Disappeared?” Another Dragon Li peered out of the wall and shouted, “How is that possible? We have been following him all along meow.” Seeing the empty alley, he cried out in despair, “Ah Yuan, we lost him.”

The orange cat, Ah Yuan said, “Just now he went around trying to find out about Zhao Xue. He might just know where Zhao Xue is. Let’s go and find out who he is.”

Yellow Bro agreed grudgingly, “That’s the only thing we can do. Hope Zhao Xue hasn’t been caught by Professor Xu.”

As they said that, the two orange cats had already leapt across to the roof of the other building.

Ah Yuan landed on the edge of the rooftop. Yellow Bro followed behind him and jumped, but he missed the edge by just a few centimeters. He fell from midair.

Ah Yuan remarked, “Yellow Bro, you ate too much. You can’t even jump over such a small distance.”

“Meow!” Yellow Bro drooled as he replied, “Desserts are too yummy, meow. Let’s go eat cheesecake again tonight!”
